Inadequate Employment and High Depressive Symptoms: Panel Analyses Presented: Stockholm, Sweden, International Congress of Psychology, July 2000 Cohort(s): NLSY79 Publisher: International Congress of Psychology Keyword(s): CESD (Depression Scale); Depression (see also CESD); Employment; Underemployment Permission to reprint the abstract has not been received from the publisher. A century's research on unemployment's health effects has largely ignored other kinds of underemployment. Inadequate employment, defined as involuntary part time or poverty wage work, appears to be rising and prevalent even during low unemployment. Using 5,113 respondents who were adequately employed in 1992, this study compared the effects of adverse employment change in 1994. Controlling for 1992 depression (Center for Epidemiologic Studies Depression scale) and background variables, both unemployed and inadequately employed workers had significantly elevated risk of high depression in 1994. The results support a paradigm change; employment would be better studied as a continuum than a dichotomy. |
